I bought my CLK in October 1997 fully loaded with 105k on the clock and a full main dealer service history. First impressions are great a real head turner very comfortable especially on the motorway, sat nav is excellet, though be aware that the TV incorporated into it does not work in th uk without being upgraded at extra cost. Fuel consumption is very dependant on your driving style, a steady cruise returns 36mpg however, a mad dash down the B roads to my office gets 14mpg using the full rev range and kick down to overtake the supercharger will drink your wallets contents but having that instant power is well worth it. Would I buy another, very likely it does not quite have the sharpe handling I would like, but this is more than made up in so many other ways

If you never knew anything about these cars and you read your review would it inspire you to part with £7800.00, and that is the reason for my not helpful rating. The intricacies and versatilities of these cars are just not bought to light in your mediocre few lines

A nice review, sounds quite decent! I dont trust satnav, ever since I saw that episode of Doctor Who with the Atmos...! xx
